"memory and events" are, themselves, energydynamics.
Our nervous systems store and retrieve 'memories' of 'events' in the
form of energydynamics, on the sole basis of their correlation to the
one-way flow of energy from order to disorder that is what's
described by 2nd Thermo.
In doing so, our nervous systems enable us to 'climb' the energy
gradient inherent in the one-way flow of energy from order to
disorder that is what's described by 2nd Thermo - thus, we progress
in every way that we do, in fact, progress.
Anything other than that is, itself, the one-way flow of energy from
order to disorder that is what's described by 2nd Thermo.
